  • A.The ethnology, biology and pharmacy
  • B.The ethnology, physiology and pharmacy
  • C.Anthropology, biology and pharmacy
  • D.The medical, natural sciences and social sciences

Answer: D

Ethnopharmacology lies at the intersection of the medical, natural sciences and social sciences.

Ethnopharmacology studies the plants, animals and other substances that human groups use as medicines. It draws on the medical sciences (pharmacology, toxicology), the natural sciences (botany, chemistry) and the social sciences (anthropology, ethnology), so the broadest description is the correct one.

The other options each name only some of the contributing disciplines, which is why they are too narrow.
